You part of Shiloh City by chance I heard they were doing this as well or something similar. The only problem I see here is after people moved on to a better ship what good would the older chasis be? Would you really be able to slae them again, especially as many shipwrights as we have out there as it is. Seems to me it would be waste of money unless you do what guy above said give to people (FRIENDS) for free and they must return them. Coukd you elaborate on this and explain please just curious.
It sounds like a good deal IF you know for CERTAIN you would make ur cash back!
I'm not in Shiloh. I'm in Ater Legio. I'm not actually one of the ones doing it. I just know that some other fledgling shipwrights in the guild are doing it. I agree that there may be problems with the idea. I'd be particularly concerned that by the time the chassis is ready for resale, the initial rush of people looking for chassis will be gone and the recycled ships will be sold into a stagnant market.
Will be interesting to see if it does work out.

Has anyone thought about recycling Chassis? I was thinking about setting up a vendor with a pack on it saying I buy used chassis (since they can be redeeded and don't seem to decay) and list the prices I will offer. Maybe work kinda like a use car salesman... like 50% valuefor a usedchassis. This might be good for low level chassis, make money from recycling and save the resources for the stuff that really matters.

good thinking, so this way its not destroyed. rebuy them for maybe 25% of what you sell them for or something like that
